Semiconductor devices with selectively doped III-V nitride layers

A semiconductor device is provided having n-type device layers of III-V nitride having donor dopants such as germanium (Ge), silicon (Si), tin (Sn), and/or oxygen (O) and/or p-type device layers of III-V nitride having acceptor dopants such as magnesium (Mg), beryllium (Be), zinc (Zn), and/or cadmiu...

Zusammenfassung:A semiconductor device is provided having n-type device layers of III-V nitride having donor dopants such as germanium (Ge), silicon (Si), tin (Sn), and/or oxygen (O) and/or p-type device layers of III-V nitride having acceptor dopants such as magnesium (Mg), beryllium (Be), zinc (Zn), and/or cadmium (Cd), either simultaneously or in a doping superlattice, to engineer strain, improve conductivity, and provide longer wavelength light emission.
